Uh oh, woe to those that dare to stand against these stunning red eyes.

I really like Shadows pic, not only do her eyes really stand out, there are also bright spots on her armor that stand out.

[SubRosa]

Renee: Blood Raven always cultivates an aura of intimidation. She's like Batman that way. She uses her charisma as a weapon against others. But like January, she will still rescue cats in trees.

Her hair is from a mod that adds a zillion new hair colors. It can be a pain to go through because there are so many. But the plus side I can usually find something I like from them.


Acadian: Blood Raven was born and raised in Boston, 1763. Things have certainly changed since then! But at least war, war never changes.


Lopov: Blood Raven is a light in the darkness. So I also love the pics of her in the shadows.

Cat rescue

[Acadian]

Love the eerie look of her eyes in the darker 'Fiddling Around' shot.

Oh noes! I hope she didn't catch the cat rescuing bug from Rider!

[Renee]

She's got a bird design on her chestplate, nice!

What a pretty garden. Will Raven be settling a place to live, or are you not into the whole Settlements angle? That'd be rad if she had her own lair.

Here, kitty kitty!

[Lopov]

Dang, I can't see any pics ATM, maybe problems with Imgur. I'm especially curious about first two pics.

[Lopov]

Gosh, those eyes - she's really creepy!

Especially in the Fiddling around pic, it looks like a cover from some horror movie. Awesome.

One rescued kitty per day keeps the ghouls away.

[SubRosa]

Acadian: Arriving at Fiddler's Green after dark turned out to be a great opportunity for a pic.

She did rescue that cat, which escaped from a nearby vault.


Renee: That is a Raven Banner emblem that I created for her armor. By created of course, I mean I copied the artwork and put it in the game.

I have been running into issues with Blood Raven's lair in this game. I have not been able to find anything just right. She has moved from one to another of the vanilla settlements in the game as she has gone south. I tried created a place for her to live on one of the raised highways, but that did not work either. I could not get the elevators to it to work, or the magazine racks, and a ruined car that I had deleted kept reappearing in the middle of her house, and I could not get rid of it because it was already deleted (even though it was right there, it was impossible to select it).

I think I finally have her lair issues worked out now, with an airship mod that I downloaded. It has that right feel for high places that Blood Raven prefers.


Lopov: I think Blood Raven had to pause her cat rescue to kill some ferals that attacked her in the process.

Are there vampires in Fallout? I mean besides Blood Raven.

That is one big, ugly dude she fights. And he's wielding a ship's anchor!

A flying house - that sounds fabulous!

[Renee]

Yes! I can empathize. It's like when I had problems with Mycharonna's game (my Skyrim vampire ice witch). She finished Dark Brotherhood, moved to the Dawnstar Sanctuary, but the problem was the place is eternally bright. Doesn't matter what I do in the CK to darken the place. TLB command does not matter. So I actually abandoned her game just due to that! Because SHE wanted a nice, dark lair to dwell within, and I could not fix this. Mych is one of my most demanding characters.

The vault looks like a shopping mall. Nice sneaking pic.

WhOA how did you get her perched up there? Did that crow just happen to be there, too?

Nice! She pwned that ... whatever that is (super mutant?)

What a cool place to live.

[Lopov]

Raven got higher than crows.

Oh my, she doesn't like the swan? Such a lovely creature he is.

Can that airship be commanded around? Can you see it travel in real time just like the vertibird?

[Kane]

Out-of-body experience. Alice transferred her essence into a synth body.

Vanilla sunrise. Opted to skip the weather mod for this run

Alice looks nice.

Neat ghost ship.

Rude bears!

[SubRosa]

I wonder if Alice will be 10 feet tall after that experiment...

I love the vanilla sky.

Looks like someone blew up the Brotherhood!

I have read about Manta Man, but have never encountered him. Cool!

I don't remember Shipbreaker. Is that in Far Harbor?

Ghost Ship is nice and creepy.

Perfect names for her guns!

Did you go the Institute route in the main quest? I do not think I ever came to a point where you become a synth.

[Renee]

Lovely pics. Oddly the one in which she's being put into that pod (or whatever) reminds me of all those silly '70s-era movies we watched as a kid. Like Sleeper and Futureworld.

What is a synth body?

Yeah, it's a quest that triggers at random while you are on The Island, and it has to do with Old Longfellow. Make sure you have an energy weapon or the unofficial patch installed when you find him, though. The unpatched version of it has 4,000 ballistic resistance.

I went a combined Institute/Minutemen route, but the essence transfer is from a mod. Phase 4, An Institute Expansion

What is a synth body?

So, there are various types of synths in FO4, not just the obviously robotic-like ones. The 3rd generation of synths are flesh and blood that's nearly indistinguishable from human beings.

Niiiice. Wicked awesome!

[SubRosa]

Acadian: There are no vampires in fallout. They do have ghouls, but they are not supernatural creatures, just people mutated by radiation who look like zombies. Some are feral, and attack everyone they see. Some are 'normal', and just look different. They do have extremely long life spans, perhaps immortality (save for catching bullets of course).

I just play Blood Raven as a normal character with glowing red eyes. My only change to the rules is that she cannot use Stimpacks for healing like everyone else. Instead I modded the blood packs in the game to provide the same healing benefits. I also took some traits from a trait mod I use to help simulate vampirism, such as regeneration. It has lots of other traits you can pick to customize your character beyond the normal perks you can learn as you level up. Most of my characters take one or two. For example, Hecate always has the Four Eyes trait, which gives you a bonus to Perception when you wear glasses, and penalty if you do not.

The big guy is a Super Mutant Behemoth. Super Mutants are like ghouls, in that they are both mutants, and they apparently do not die of old age. Instead Super Mutants get larger and larger the older the become. The oldest ones are like these Behemoths, gigantic. They are one of the biggest boss enemies in the game.


Renee: Blood Raven has a jet pack from a mod, which allows a limited form of flight. More like super leaps, that use up your action points. So you cannot do it indefinitely. I use it for a lot of my characters. It adds a whole new dimension to the game (literally the 3rd dimension). Going from rooftop to rooftop downtown is a lot of fun.


Lopov: Unfortunately the airship does not move in real time. It has three locations that it can hover over. You go to the steering cabin to select where you want to be. But the way the mod is made, there are three separate interiors cells, one for each location. So except for a few special containers, any decorating you do, or gear you have stored, does not travel with you. So I just keep it in one place.

It is a neat idea. In the future I might try doing something similar, and use this mod as the starting point for a single location airship. Maybe one a little smaller, as this one has a lot of space I never use.

Love how appropriately you titled both 'There can be only one' and 'Between light and darkness'.

Nice to see Blood Raven's wearing her protection in hard hat.

Blood Raven emerging from the flames reminds me of a fave snip from a vid I like. Bear with me. The tiny scene in question only runs from 0:50 to 0:55 in this vid: Xena - Holding Out for a Hero. I think the significance for me is that, in many ways, Buffy views her magnificent pal Sir Mazoga to be rather like Xena.

[Lopov]

@Kane - I must have missed that quest when on the Island. Ah, now I read that it has to do with Old Longfellow, that explains it.

Alice played with matches and caused that big fire...

Can you reach and explore that ghost ship?

Sometimes the best things take place in toilets.

@SubRosa - Uh oh, she brought down the glowing claw. And looks unscathed at that!

Armored up & Iron giants - are these pics from that showdown in factory factory from the Automatron DLC?

Michael Bay is absolutely gorgeous, I mean the pic of course.

BIG weapons for BIG heroes!

Is Blood Raven light or darkness?

[SubRosa]

Acadian: If you do not wear a hard hat in certain areas, the construction protectrons will attack you. Talk about safety first!

That does look like Xena running through the flames!


Lopov: Several bottlecap mines helped soften up that glowing deathclaw before Blood Raven went sword to claw with it.

The armored pics are indeed from the Automatron DLC, and the satellite station where you get Jezbel's head.

Blood Raven is both light and darkness.
